Look for a utility called lsof (list open files); it's available from any of the HP-UX Porting Centre's. A quick search of the Forums for "lsof" will yield yield many results. Another, though less powerful and user tool is fuser. Man fuser for details.

you can use lsof to get that

#lsof -u
#lsof -p pid

If you feel open files are too high you can restrict using the
ulimit -n option

Hi

You can use lsof.
You need to install as it doesn't come with HP-UX.
It can be downloaded form this site.

# lsof

Shows all open files for specified filesystem.
